1. The maximum tuition fee that may be charged for elementary and
high school students residing within another school district or
corporation except students attending school in another district
under section 282.7, subsection 1, or subsections 1 and 3, is the

A school corporation which owns facilities used as attendance
centers for students shall maintain an itemized statement of the
appraised value of all buildings owned by the school corporation.

This subsection does not prevent the corporation or district in
which the student resides from paying a tuition in excess of the
maximum computed tuition rates, if the actual per pupil cost of the
preceding year so warrants, but the receiving district or corporation
shall not demand more than the maximum rate.

which commences with either grade nine or grade ten as determined by
the board of directors of the district, and junior high school means
the remaining grades commencing with grade seven. Section History: Early Form
